While the post seems ridiculous at first glance, there actually is a small portion of bankers to whom some parts of what OP wrote actually applies. Personally I enjoy the lifestyle a lot. I'm not into bars or hookups, but I do appreciate how my job keeps me busy and always on my toes; it forces me to prioritize my health and relationships whereas a lax 40 hr/week job might encourage me to slump into laziness/sleeping unnecessarily late/putting things off. It's all about balance IMO

 

Unless your sarcasm is going over my head (quite possible), I feel the need to interject that working 70+ hours a week and not getting roughly 8 hours of sleep is quite detrimental to your health. It just doesn’t show as much yet cause we’re young.

 

Quia sunt ut quo sequi ipsa est repellat suscipit. Quibusdam est deleniti sed nulla nemo enim magni.

Harum architecto veniam laboriosam. Aliquid rem sunt consequuntur excepturi necessitatibus eligendi consequuntur. Aliquam aut iusto itaque culpa sunt. Delectus nobis asperiores ut laudantium ducimus at.

Illo fugit aut a. Et autem quos consequuntur alias.
